Lots containing elephant ivory are registered for this sale under a UK exemption. As the Auctioneers of these articles, the Auctioneers undertake to comply fully with CITES and DEFRA regulation. Buyers are advised to inform themselves of all such regulations and should expect the exportation of items to take some time to arrange. The information is made available for the convenience of the Bidder and the absence of the symbol is not a warranty that there are no restrictions regarding import or export of the Lot. The Auctioneers accept no liability for any lots which may be subject to CITES but have not been identified as such. Olympia Auctions suggests that buyers check with their own goverment regarding wildlife import requirements prior to placing a bid.

Cataloguing Practice

PLEASE NOTE THAT ALL MEASUREMENTS ARE APPROXIMATE AND THAT ILLUSTRATIONS ARE NOT TO SCALE. Weights may only be accurate to within 5 grams. Weights shown as ‘(*oz)’ are in Troy Ounces and usually rounded down to the full ounce.

It is common practice for many gemstones to be treated by a variety of methods to enhance their appearance and the international jewellery trade has generally accepted these methods. Although heat enhancement of colour is usually permanent, in some cases this could affect the durability of a gemstone. Oiled gemstones may need re-oiling after a certain period. If no gemmological report is published in the catalogue, prospective Buyers should be aware that the gemstones or pearls could have been enhanced by some method.

Condition is not normally recorded and all lots are sold as viewed. Condition reports can be requested prior to sale. Whilst the Auctioneers are pleased to provide a general report of condition, the Auctioneers are not professional conservators or restorers and any statements made are merely subjective, qualified opinion. Prospective Buyers should satisfy themselves in person wherever possible as to the condition of a lot, or ask an agent to inspect it for them.

Payment

Payment is due in sterling at the conclusion of the sale and before purchases can be released. Please note that we require seven days to clear sterling cheques unless special arrangements have been made in advance of the sale. Cash and UK registered debit card payments above £6,000 and "card holder not present" payments above £2,000 cannot be accepted.

Payment can be made online at www.OlympiaAuctions.com/payments.

Diaghilev's full production opened in Berlin's Theater des Westens on 10 May 1910 to wide acclaim, with repeated productions in Berlin by the company in 1912 and 1914, the ballet becoming hugely popular in Germany.

There exists a sketch by Reiche of the subject however, entitled 'Le Char de Télémaque', deposited in the Bibliothèque Impériale in 1807 (now the Bibliothèque Nationale, Ref.134-1807). The same model of clock is illustrated in Pierre Kjellberg, 'La Pendule Française du Moyen Age au XXe Siècle', 1997, p.417, plate D and by Tardy, 'Les Plus Belles Pendules Françaises', 1994, p.279. In Elke Niehüser, "Die Französische Bronzeuhr", 1997, p.69, it is suggested Reiche's design may have based on a model by the sculptor Jean-Baptiste Boyer (1783-1839). Similar clocks may be found in the collections of the Musée François Duesberg, Mons, Belgium, the Musée de Château de Malmaison, Rueil-Malmaison, France and in the Spanish Royal Collections.

Albert John Wilkins (1881-1953), the son of the silversmith Walter John Wilkins, was apprenticed to Frank Clarke Wheeler (of Wakely & Wheeler) in 1896. He is listed in the 1911 census as working as a 'Visiting Teacher of Art Metalwork' in the employ of the London County Council. Wilkins probably worked for H.G. Murphy, the art jeweller and silversmith, from 1911. Murphy, having enlisted for WWI, left his wife and Wilkins to run the workshop, Wilkins entering his first mark with the Goldsmiths' Company in August 1915 as partner in 'Murphy and Wilkins, gold and silver workers of 5 Kenton street, Russell Square'. It is not known how long the association continued, but Wilkins appears to have continued working from this address throughout his career, entering a second mark in June 1926. H.G. Murphy did not register a second mark until 1928, when he opened his famous 'Falcon Studio' in Weymouth Street.

The Guarantee lasts for one (1) year after the date of the relevant auction, is for the benefit of the Buyer only and is non-transferable.

Property shall not be considered Counterfeit solely because of any damage and/or restoration and/or modification work (including, but not limited to, recolouring, tooling or repatinating).

Please note that this Guarantee does not apply if either:(i) the catalogue description was in accordance with the generally accepted opinions of scholars and experts at the date of the sale, or the catalogue description indicated that there was a conflict of such opinions; or (ii) the only method of establishing at the date of the sale that the item was a Counterfeit would have been by means of processes not then generally available or accepted, unreasonably expensive

or impractical; or likely to have caused damage to or loss in value to the Property (in the Auctioneers reasonable opinion); or (iii) there has been no material loss in value of the Property from its value had it accorded with its catalogue description.

To claim under this Guarantee, the Buyer must:(i) notify the Auctioneers in writing within one (1) month of receiving any information that causes the Buyer to question the authenticity or attribution of the Property, specifying the lot number, date of the auction at which it was purchased and the reasons why it is believed to be Counterfeit; and (ii) return the Property to the Auctioneers in the same condition as at the date of sale and be able to transfer good title in the Property, free from any third party claims arising after the date of the sale.

The Auctioneers shall not be bound by any reports produced by the Buyer, and reserves the right to seek additional expert advice at its own expense. In the event the Auctioneers decides to rescind the sale under this Guarantee, it may refund to the Buyer the reasonable costs of up to two mutually approved independent expert reports, provided always that the costs of such reports have been approved in advance and in writing by the Auctioneers.
